Trace a word. Watch the tiles pop, the board tumble, and new letters drop in. That's BumpyWords: a word game with a bumpy board that never stays still. Swipe across neighboring letters in any direction to spell a word of three letters or more. The tiles you used burst away, the ones above fall into their place, and fresh letters fill the top. Every word reshapes the board, so the next one is already waiting. Score big and the game shouts it: NICE, GREAT, AMAZING, LEGENDARY. PICK YOUR GAME - Classic: no clock. Play until the board runs out of words. - 2, 3 and 5 Minute Challenge: score as much as you can before time's up. - 50, 100 and 250 Word Limit: a fixed number of words. Make each one count. PLAY IT YOUR WAY - Three levels: Easy takes 3-letter words, Medium needs 4, Hard needs 5. - Hints when you're stuck. They cost points, so use them wisely. - Spin the board a quarter turn to see it with fresh eyes. - Combos for words in a row, bonuses for rare letters, a gold star for your longest word. KEEP SCORE - Personal bests for every mode, level and language. - 14 achievements, from First Word to Letter Master. - My Words: the words you play most and the longest you've ever found. 5 LANGUAGES Play with English, Italian, French, Spanish or Japanese words, each with its own letters and points, and keep separate records in each. Menus follow along, or set them separately. MADE TO FEEL GOOD - Five candy color themes, each with a dark mode. - Bouncy animations, popping tiles, confetti for your best words. - A voice that cheers you on - Everything on your device: play offline, anywhere. - No ads. No accounts. Just words. Whether you've got two minutes in line or an evening on the couch, there's a mode for it. Make words. Bump scores.
